Just as a side note, you could go 285/295 on OEM fenders if you get a custom wheel with the perfect offset.

There was a company that made the wider fenders direct bolt on for e92 as well, but I can't recall their name. The had pics with a silver e90 and white e92 both with their fenders. They also made that overlay CSL trunk.

CaptainInsano, I believe there is a company in California who makes M3-style fenders in ABS that don't have the grill, and bolt onto the 335 (no need for a hood or bumper). Probably a bit late to bring up at this point, but I figured I'd mention. Because as it has been said before, doing a 285 out back on stock fenders is definitely doable, it's the front that becomes a challenge...ask me how I know, I'm trying for 245/275 PSS (more like 255/285 in other brands) with no rubbing, no modifications to the front fenders (yes, I am rolled out back).

FWIW, i'm currently running 255/40/19 PSS in the front of my E92 on stock fenders. 19x9 +30 wheel, -2.5* camber, slight rub where the fender and bumper meet. A 19x9 +33 wheel would probably be perfect.

245/275 with PSS is no problem. I am running it. Could probably fit a 285 in the back if the wheel offset was a little different. The front is maxed out at 245mm unless you want to change your suspension settings to fit the tire.... kind of defeats the point though if you have to change too much. I am running Morr VS8.

Yeah, it was a white e92 with e60 M5 wheels, they might've even been square.

Impressive, figured 245 was the limit without completely trashing the fender liners. That said, I wanted to try for a 9.5 up front, somewhere in the et33-35 range, but I need to measure to see if I'll clear the strut. Will probably chicken out and go 19x9 et31 like my old fronts.

I talked to the body shop today. They are going to make the front as wide as possible (275/285), and I'll be running somewhere over 300 on the rear. So hopefully 285/315 will be possible, but I have to get new wheels now

No updates man. I'll be sure to let you know. You seem more interested than me lol.

Yea, I need some more tire particularly in the front (flaring the rear fenders seems pretty straightforward as they are metal). Interested in any solutions for that that don't involve "full M3 body kit".

I'm also interested in fitting more meat under the front. The M3 conversion isn't flared enough to justify replacing the bumper/hood/fenders. If there was a straight up bolt on that added width, that would be a hot seller.

I don't mind replacing the fenders and front bumper to get more clearance, but the M3 stuff requires hood and headlight supports and then a lot of custom fitments with the fender liners etc... lots of work.

If there were some fenders made for the 335i that have more clearance, that would be the ticket. Or some method like Captain Insano is talking about to modify the 335 fenders.
